About Me

I was born in Bukura, Western parts of Kenya. My dad died while I was in High school. We had to help her work in peoples farms to earn a leaving from the pay at the end of the day. When I got marred? we had to move to Nairobi to look for a job, which I did not get. I joined other women in making shoes decoration patches, that we sale to shoes makers at Karioko near Nairobi town.

My Business

My business involves sawing bids on shoes decoration patches. I chose this business because its the only easily available business that can be done and bring quick income. One pair of patch costs Ksh 100/- . The profit I get after buying the materials is used for food, family clothing and also sent some to my mum back at home.

Loan Proposal

I will use the loan to increase Materials for making the the shoes decoration patches, thus increase the profit. This will help in growing my business and also help my mum in School fees payment. I expect to increase my profit from Ksh 100/- to a higher level possible.

    Hi Zidisha team. I called Veronicah and she said to be having a problem with marketing of her products as those who used to buy her products closed down their businesses for election break. She promised to begin repayments soon as possible

    Hello Lenders,
    I tried to reach Veronicah on phone but could not reach her. I called a family member referee who informed me that she was affected with the violence that took place after the 8th August 2017 elections in Kenya. Currently she cannot be reached on phone but the referee promised to get to reach her this weekend. I informed the referee to tell her to log onto her account and inform the lenders of the challenges she is facing.
